3121  Economy / Speculation / Re: Canadian Housing & Bitcoin on: October 15, 2014, 03:24:24 PM
Yes the canadian housing is severely overpriced and its a huge bubble.

What will cause the bubble to burst? and burst badly?

When the interest rates start to rise again which is due to happen sometime in 2015 when the Fed starts to increase interest rates.

Canadians have a huge debt to income ratio and even a small increase in interest rates will hurt most home owners who are underwater on their mortgage.

I have a feeling they will never raise the rate again until the CAD is dead.. they cannot with out sinking the ecom..  A very slow 10-50 year death of the fractional banking system...?

The Stock market at current prices is a bargain !
If you have some cash it's the right time to pump in for quick 2-3% profit in short term.


Seems more like a way to lose a quick 1-2% a day...

Also the recent Andreas video.

Anyone think they won't do anything in regards to regulation?

If you have a fair amount of bitcoins is it stupid to keep them all on Bitcoin Core on a computer that's just about always online?

Even with a good password?

Do you think cold storage is essential?

Cold storage is a MUST.

there is absolutely no chance we will drop below 300. I can feel it.

The force is strong with this one.
3127  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The how-do-we-make-it-illegal problem for the bankers on: October 14, 2014, 08:21:29 PM
An even bigger problem for them could be people like me. People who are basically law abiding, but who will use bitcoin no matter what the law is.  Wink

As Thomas Jefferson would have said:

"If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so."

This is the case with bitcoin.  Sure go after people using it for illicit means, but do they care that drug cartels, dealers, criminals deal in cash?  No they dont!

The general public and slavers(police) will disagree with you...  Not because you are wrong but because they are very stupid and enjoy the easy life of a slave.

Interesting story, but without proof it's simply conjecture.

This is the speculation section.

I.. I..

I only have 4-5 BTC and I am so protective I have them all in many different locations encrypted with different passes...
3131  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Very Dangerous & Slick Scam: cryptomsgr.com on: October 14, 2014, 03:35:45 PM
And ppl claim bitcoin is completely safe... Computers and technology could be a threat, perhaps it is a boon, just that 98% of you are going to get robbed, scammed, fleaced.... No different than fiat money.

Perhaps it time our species takes an evolutionary leap forward in the intelligence dept and bitcoin will be the guiding light


They are if you store them properly.
3132  Economy / Speculation / Re: simple stupid comparison of bitcoin mining and just buying on: October 14, 2014, 03:31:37 PM
well, mining is just another way of acquiring bitcoins!

hmmm yes if the miner didnt break after few month.

All of my S1's have been running for well over half a year.

The copper of crypto is how one should push FTC.

I like copper.
3135  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FTC XPM on: October 14, 2014, 12:54:43 PM
They have no new development of them. There are more innovations and improvements from new altcoins which is attracting more attention and is bought at higher price at the exchanges. They are the ones having great potential.

I had a friend say the same thing about name coin.. selling off 1500 BTC...  He could of retired in Nov but switched to the "new and better crypto that would out preform BTC for sure"
3136  Economy / Speculation / Re: The bearwhale must feel pretty stupid now on: October 14, 2014, 01:05:32 AM
Who knows, maybe what happened is exactly what they wanted to happen for whatever reason.

This, who knows the plan.
3137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / FTC XPM on: October 13, 2014, 02:52:15 PM
These were earlier coins on coinmarketcap.com, medium altcoins that never dipped to low in value.

They have pretty much kept around the price they are at currently (say FTC made a little jump today but that is not important) for the last 60 days their value has been pretty much constant.. Any opinions on this? Debating buying some more of these ones.

Creation: Copy bitcoinaddress.org site to CD, run on offline computer, create encrypted addresses, print them to .xps and copy to cd, destory hard drive.

Removal: decrypt an address on offline computer, copy a private key to cd, destroy hard drive.  Upload private key to a wallet.


Effectiveness = 100%?
You will want to create multiple backups of your private key. This is true for both quantity and type of backup. If the CD you copy the private key to is defective and gets corrupted then you would have no way to recover your lost money

Oh.. I have like 8 USB's and 6 CD's, 2 HD's, 1 External HD.  I used a CD to move them off the offline HD so nothing could be copied from the HD but what I wanted.  Then backed it up like a mad man.. I don't know if I am done backing up actually.. Kinda had some crazy plans to plant them around a large area in weather proof containers....  yaa..  LOL .. PROTECTION PROTECTION PROTECTION.  Was going to go to factory direct to buy a but ton of CD's.

Instead of hiding outdoors in weather proof containers might look into a lock box at a bank.   You could easily store a raspberry pi, cd's, usb's etc to have safely stored as a backup.

Got copies stored in my lock box at the bank as well Wink.

Do you really have to do this?

Can't you just:
--> Disconnect from internet
--> Boot from a live Ubuntu disc/USB
--> Run a wallet like MultiBit, generate offline addresses
--> Copy/write keys to DVD, print paper wallets
--> Shut down the PC

I don't want to do step two of that process...

I'm not debating it's longer than it needs to be.. just curious about it's point of failures.  As far as I can tell it is only the encryption pass.
